1962 Allstate 150






A freind of mine found this bike half tore apart in his freinds garage. Without enough knowledge to put it together he sold it to me. This bike made by Puch and was made for Sears mail order catalog. In the 1960's Sears went to Puch looking for a bike to compete with the Japanese.Puch had 11000 frames made in the 30's "out back" and built 125cc and 150cc hardtails to ship to the USA.This bike is pretty much all original

1964 Harley Scat

After looking for old photos of old Harleys I came upon a picture of the Harley s125. This 2 stroke built in Milwaukee along side panheads were Harley's intro bike for the younger generation. I had to have one. After looking for sometime I found this bike in Boise ID.




It's a dirt bike version of the s125. 1964 BTH Harley SCAT. It's grown from 125cc in 1949 to 165cc in 1964 with a softtail rear suspension. This design was used 20 years later in the softail FLSTC line.

There are several good pictures of an S125 here.

1962 Honda C110

This bike was the first bike I bought just to collect. I had never seen a black honda before. I found it in Springville while looking at an old man's Indian Warrior. It is all original and has only been power washed and a few missing parts bought and installed. It has been started and I rode it down the street before it was put on the wall.
